PanopticonThis is a featured page

The panopticon was first conceived as a prison that would only require one guard. The cells would be arranged in a circular fashion with a guard at the center of the structure. There would be windows which the prisoner would not be able to look out of but which the guard would be able to look into. Thisestablishes a paranoia which would in theory cause the prisoner to behave him or herself.
